PR Firm Behind Al Gore YouTube Spoof?
mytrip writes to tell us ABC News is reporting that a supposed amateur video posted to YouTube.com may have actually been designed and posted by a Republican public relations firm called DCI. From the article: "Public relations firms have long used computer technology to create bogus grassroots campaigns, which are called 'Astroturf.' Now these firms are being hired to push illusions on the Internet to create the false impression of real people blogging, e-mailing and making films."
...yesterday exactly why?

Yes I know no complaints, yet I dare to anyway, bye, bye karma, nice knowing you.
Tired of all the isms, don't exploit people as an employer, or a government, mmmmK?
On Friday, gas shot up 20 cents to $3.19 in St. Louis. Thursday morning and Satuday morning it was back down to $2.97.
I've got a good mind to call my state Attorney General about this price gouging on Monday.
Adding another $4 at each pit stop isn't just robbery, it is rape.
To make matters even more decetful, these rapist advertise everywhere, then argue that if we don't like it we can walk to work.
I refuse to be black mailed on one end and lied to on the other.
These people at the oil industry posing as a grass roots organinzation are about as benevolent as the giant corporations that pose as small businesses.
I'm starting to believe that they are trying to shut us up. The power went out again in St. Louis this afternoon without a storm, yet the electric company rewired everything last week.
We are being lied too again. It's time to cut out their lying tonuges!
The Rapture is NOT an exit strategy.

And the hypocrisy of liberals is astounding. It's not an insult, it's a simple statement of fact.
Who else would write "How else do you explain their support for setting up torture and murder camps all over the world..." with a signature like "Be a patriot: Murder a Republican."
I guess the problem lies with the fact that no one I know, republican or otherwise, supports "setting up torture and murder camps." We just realize that, for example, touching someone's koran isn't "torture." Or maybe, for example, we know that the incidents at Abu Ghraib were isolated incidents conducted by a few morons who deserved to be punished, and that doesn't make Abu Ghraib some hell-hole of a detention facility.
Or maybe it's the "fact" that people on our side who are commiting atrocities are being tried and punished, while people on the other side commiting atrocities get sympathy from people like you.
See, I can spout nonsense, too... and I can even state "it's a fact" because that somehow makes it true!
Stupid sexy Flanders.
